                         Tuesday, June 8, 2010

  Mr. ADLER of New Jersey. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Howard 
R. Cathers Jr. who passed away on May 28, 2010 at the age of 90. Howard 
was a devoted and loving husband, father of four, grandfather of 
eleven, and great-grandfather of twenty-four.
  Mr. Cathers served his country honorably in the U.S. Navy during 
World War II, in Okinawa, Japan, and was a member of Browns Mills 
Memorial Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6805 and the Seabees.
  Howard was a resident of Browns Mills for forty-eight years. He was a 
stationary engineer for Buttonwood Hospital, drove a school bus for the 
Pemberton Township Board of Education, and he and his late wife, 
Frances, worked for the Burlington County Times as newspaper carriers. 
Howard was also a member of Browns Mills Senior Citizen Club and St. 
Ann's Church. In his retirement he enjoyed making miniature doll house 
furniture.
  Madam Speaker, I hope you will join me and a grateful nation in 
paying tribute to the life of this honorable man for his many 
contributions to his community and to our great country.
